Dear CSA Member, New in your box this week is Spinach! We grow a large leaf spinach here on the farm that you will really enjoy. It has a deep green color with very tender leaves. My favorite way to prepare it is steamed. I recently added it freshly uncooked to a homemade lasagna. It was delicious! Anyway you choose to prepare it you will love it. You will also be getting the first harvest of kale. This week's kale will be green curly kale. Enjoy it raw or cooked. It can be added to your morning smoothie or prepared as your side dish. Many ways to use your superfood kale! BOXES: I have had questions at pick up on how to open and break down the CSA share boxes for reuse at the farm, and if the boxes get torn or ripped we can't reuse them.

Here is a great video by Lauren from the Stamford CSA How to... Open and Break Down CSA boxes to return back to the farm to be reused.. How to Open How to Breakdown (please follow her as she posts weekly "unboxing videos" Very helpful!) Thanks, Lauren!!!
